Monthly Tree Donations Make an Impact

on Thursday, 29 November 2018

Even with a small budget, you, and even your company, can help Food & Trees for Africa further our cause of planting trees at schools throughout South Africa.

Food & Trees for Africa have many sponsors who sponsor trees monthly to the Trees for All Programme. These tree donations are accumulated and matched with beneficiaries (mainly primary schools) on our waiting list who have applied for fruit and shade trees.

We distribute the trees, and work with the schools to ensure that trees are planted and well cared for. The schools then send through thank you letters and pictures of the trees. As a result sponsors are able to see the impact of their donations.

Revolution Print donate 15 trees a month, which are matched with beneficiaries on our applications database. In November 2018, Lowe Primary School received fruit and shade trees through the support of Revolution Print. The school were so excited to get the trees in the ground, that the teachers made a lesson out planting activities and sent through pictures and thanks the very same day they received trees.

There are many ways you, as a supporter of FTFA, can further our tree planting work. You or your office can donate trees monthly, or you could load FTFA as a Myschool beneficiary and ensure that through each purchase you support the work that we do.
